So I was looking up IDW transformers fan pages, and stumbled onto a facebook page for dissatisfied fans.
Wow, they are very.... dogmatic.
"Megatron would never be an autobot"
"All IDW writers are shit"
"This is not like the 80's"
"GAAAAAYS!"
Against my better judgement, I left a comment on a 2 year old post recommending a run. Almost immediately got a response. That I have not read yet, and probably won't.

Seeing if you blindly trust your doctor would raise a few more eyebrows, then if they only wanted to see if soldiers blindly obey orders to murder civilians.
Because one affects a lot less people then the other, and is less ripe for abuse. [/B]
There were follow-up studies. Here's the summary (unformatted because I'm too lazy):
The author conducted a partial replication of Stanley Milgram’s (1963, 1965, 1974) obedience studies that allowed
for useful comparisons with the original investigations
while protecting the well-being of participants. Seventy
adults participated in a replication of Milgram’s Experiment 5 up to the point at which they first heard the learner’s verbal protest (150 volts). Because 79% of Milgram’s
participants who went past this point continued to the end
of the shock generator’s range, reasonable estimates could
be made about what the present participants would have
done if allowed to continue. Obedience rates in the 2006
replication were only slightly lower than those Milgram
found 45 years earlier. Contrary to expectation, participants who saw a confederate refuse the experimenter’s
instructions obeyed as often as those who saw no model.
Men and women did not differ in their rates of obedience,
but there was some evidence that individual differences in
empathic concern and desire for control affected participants’ responses.

I say there are too many variables and relationships are so complicated that they are just replicating the circumstances or situations specific to those studies and they are studying outcomes specific to that study but not the real world.
Other studies that focus on confirmation bias andcognitive ease vs cognitive strain are better measures of "real world outcomes." But trying to study the psychology of authority in any "lab" setting is, in my arrogant opinion, going to end up as science specific to that scenario and not the real world.
The only way to truly study this is to break great amounts of ethics by studying people without their consent.

We get it, you have a tiny dick. For the record, I am 195 lbs. of lean muscle with 6% body fat.
6% still seems kind of low. That's bodybuilder "I'm 2 weeks out from the stage" bodyfat.
To give you an example of what 6% bodyfat really looks like:
Also, guessing, I'm probably 14% at the moment. I weigh 195 at 5'10".

Jealous of Adam.
I haven't seen 5% body fat since 18, after three years of long distance running in high school.

I vary from 15-25 although I am deffo heading south of 15 at the moment thanks to keto.
I'm actually quite trim ATM due to lockdown and not having to eat while I work, being able to put thought into meals leads to healthier eating. It's made me lose a bit of respect for the types of stay-at-home parents who feed their kids chicken nuggets and chips every day.

It's lazy parenting because that kind of food is easy to prepare.
Those same parents also post and tweet about their latest favorite shows. Meaning, they had time to actually put more thought into the food they prepared for their children.

I send my son out with a .22 rifle in the morning and tell him he better bring home some good eats by 10am or he pounds sand. He learns to be self sufficient, eat off the land and shoot! Then I dress up in camo and turn on Duck Dynasty!

My sister was stay-at-home for a few years until her kids got older, she would do housework obviously but spent probably 3 hours of her day drinking coffee and reading magazines, not to mention the shopping trips where she'd buy one item of cleaning supplies and a bunch of shit she didn't need and call it work.

I was shocked how easy being a stay-at-home parent was. It was easy to clean the whole house while also ensuring the kids stayed out of trouble and had decent food to eat.
Those moms posting on the internetz are saying they are exhausted from mommy duty are full of shit.
No, your job isn't hard. It's easy. Why isn't your house clean? Why isn't the laundry done? Why are your kids fat little shits?
Same applies for stay-at-home dads - they had better clean that house and raise those kids properly. If you're not having to work, you contribute to the "household" other ways. It better run as a cohesive family unit.
